Around the League: 2018 Season
He must have been trying to peddle his green pom pom's and nobody was buying....heh heh

Around the League: 2018 Season
It seems some teams are likewise.....Not mentioning which team... but Cup drought is the clue

D for Disaster (not D Fence)
Yes that is the upside....I know this team is better in a lot of areas than they showed against Edm....The next game will be very telling...IF we struggle against that mess in Montreal....even with our green qb... hmmmmm the jury is going to be out...I want to see us put those guys away in a solid fashion and build from there

Game Day Thread - League Opener: Eskies
I think it would have been better to advance the ball with the time we had left ...a minute and change...and kick a winner ourselves... Every second counts and running around in our backfield to throw an iffy pass, not once but twice, was wasting valuable time...The longer a play takes to develop takes time off the clock, it doesn't stop until the play is dead in that instance...I thought we could have played it better

Game Day Thread - League Opener: Eskies
Have to agree on those last two pass attempts.....we should have run the ball and to the sidelines to stop the clock....IF you're going to throw have plays in place where it goes to the sidelines to stop the clock...That was poor play calling on Lapo's part and if we had at least advanced the ball for a couple of first downs, Edm. doesn't get to kick that game winner...Lot's of shoring up to do before we can get to the CUP game....Get on it O'Shea.

D for Disaster (not D Fence)
With over 500 yds. passing against...I think Ritchie needs a talking to...The personnel has changed but it appears not the schemes...With a stouter D this game could have been won...bad weather and all..Covering kicks is also a problem ….although we never had one returned for six like they did, they were sure getting a lot of yardage on poor tackling and everyone of their returns looked like an adventure on our part....Are we out kicking the coverage??? Randle island sunk (or stunk) on that td to start the game...not good enough

Seems like a 'tell it like it is' kinda guy...I like that

Help us Chris Streveler, You're our Only Hope
Get Riley off his game....blitz the hell out of them BUT at the same time watch out for his slippery little take off move....Riley can run and like Streveler throws caution to the wind and will bull his way for a first down, taking on all heavy hitters....I'm hoping he'll think twice about escaping the blitz and taking off when he sees Bighill closing in on him...that'll unnerve ol slippery....He's one tough customer and to beat the esks. you have to beat Riley....I hope we can mange to put a few more points on the board than they do and let the D take of the rest...They are a solid club BUT so are we....Gonna be a slobberknocker

Regular Season Bomber News & Discussion
First game of the year....at home....playing against one of the top teams in the west....if not the league....hey no pressure...he should take it all in stride...…...lol.. Thing is we're about to find out how good Streveler really is....We may be pleasantly surprised.......Can't say a game like this will ruin the guy considering the circumstances... He'll get the support he needs from a very good D..and ya just never know
-
Regular Season Bomber News & Discussion
Either guy makes me nervous....Looks like a coin-flip and cross everything....fingers ...eyes...toes..I only hope we leave whoever starts in for awhile and don't pull on the leash too quick....Whoever follows him up might be on a shorter one...What a predicament ...No choice but to work around it and hope the D comes up BIG(HILL)

Cut Down Day - - Wild Assed Guesses (WAG System)
Our pr wasn't good enough??.....kind of a flakey move...At any rate he is closer to home and maybe stands a better chance of starting...Oh well....back to the well and bring in the next Medlock....How is Ryan doing down south....LOL
-
Hamilton shopping Vernon Adams
Slim Pickings is out there.....sign him ...Didn't think much of Adams when he was brought in by Wally....still didn't like him when he was in Mont....did nothing in Regina and even less in Ham....Do we want to give him a handle like 'suitcase Glenn' and bring him in then cut him??? Sorry I think we pass

Training Camp 2018
Darian Durant ... persona non grata around these parts....take off eh Darian....ya bug me....Probably part of some demented plan to stick it to us one more time...Cash your cheque and shut the fu up
-
Training Camp 2018
So we should be looking at a temp. for now...UNLESS Ross or Streveler light it up
-
Training Camp 2018
Don't remember it being 5 years...He came up the leos ranks quite rapidly as I recall and then was deemed too good to sit as a back-up and dealt to the schmoes..In any case Nichols isn't going anywhere soon and the next guy will rise....Let's hope we have him in our midst now
-
Training Camp 2018
Most likely exploring all angles....Maybe the injury isn't season ending and we just need a 'gap guy' for now...Best not let another club know how desperate we are (if we are) and set something up this weekend...If it's only a stop gap measure then deal accordingly But wouldn't it be great to find out we have another star in this league...namely Streveler...I always try to look at the bright side during adversity...and wouldn't it be great if we find out we have another Riley under our nose

Will Streveler Be Our James Franklin?
IF Matt is hurt for any lengthy period , I hope Streveler is James Franklin 2 cuz the alternatives aren't going to thrill anyone...Don't like the sounds of this and will wait for more info. and hope it's forth coming soon

[MERGED] WPG vs. BC - Battles to Watch

Game Day: Edmonton @ Winnipeg (Pre-Season) June 1, 2018
The fixation around Manziel is getting a little nauseous ..Certainly he deserves his press just being who he is, BUT it certainly shouldn't be at the expense of other clubs...C'mon tsn...trying dropping what looks like a lot of favouritism and plain old arse kissin

3 stars +hh first pre season edition
Why is it we seem to start so damn slow...then have to scramble like hell to get back on even terms....The kick return for a td was right out of the gate and I can remember last year similar poor coverage on returns amounting to the same thing...We have to shore that up because that kind of start can be trend setting and game killers...The early going was sure a disappointment although we turned it around in a hurry...I'd like to see us grab the early lead for a change and then pile it on...The talent is here to do just that
-
Will Streveler Be Our James Franklin?
Give the guy some time to prove he has what it takes to lead this club ...Way too early to anoint him as the 'next' guy....I have to admit he sure showed a lot of 'promise' last night and that's a good thing...He has to 'keep on'...'keepin on' before I'd answer 'yes' in this poll
-
Training Camp 2018
Big question mark for sure....I have always been a fan of the guy....Brings it on every play BUT time catches up with us all and IF someone is better at his position you go with it...I think Ian has a future in coaching in this league...he has the smarts to better any team in this league...I hope it's with us after his playing days are done and if he gets beat out this year I hope he sticks around and we find a spot for him in the coaching ranks...AND no I'm not Wild's relative
-
Training Camp 2018
These pre-season games are going to separate the wheat from the chaff and there could be a few surprises...No matter how good you look in camp...if you can't perform when the lights are on...cut time around the corner....I think we've brought in enough talent to definitely improve this year....Just how much???We're about to find out pretty quick
